Ask Philosphers

You ask. Philosophers answer.

Example:

Q: Can you give any instances of any philosophical problems that have been ‘nailed’ so to speak by philosophy – that is, solved?

A: by Jay L. Garfield: Yes. The question of whether the argument from design can prove the existence of the Christian, or any other, deity. That problem was nailed by Hume, and has been re-nailed in any number of recent articles. It can’t. That also shows that the fact that philosophers have nailed a problem does not convince everyone!
